Celtics Player Previews: The Bench Forwards
The Celtics took a big loss this summer when they were unable to re-sign forward James Posey for a new contract before he took off for the New Orleans Hornets. In his place, Danny Ainge signed and drafted a couple players that may help fill his void. They help make up the forwards that will [...]
Bill Walker Impresses in Celtics Loss

In this edition of the Four-Point Play, I’ll take a look at the progress of Darius Miles, the Tim Donaghy referee scandal supposedly coming to a close, what the Celtics will do if Kendrick Perkins has to sit down with an injury, and Ray Allen’s battle against his son’s rare illness.

Celtics Meet with President Bush
His country deep in an epic economic crisis (though his administration’s plan to stimulate the economy has led to two straight big days on Wall Street), President Bush still found enough time to welcome the NBA Champion Boston Celtics to the White House.
“It’s amazing how sports works, isn’t it?” Bush said. “At the beginning of [...]
Why Sam Cassell Can Be a Good Coach
In this edition of the Four-Point Play, I’ll give four reasons (four points) why Sam Cassell will be a good future coach in the NBA. I’ll also make reference to Josh Howard’s stupid remarks about the “Star Spangled Banner.”
Sam Cassell will be a good NBA coach.
Here’s four reasons why:
1. Sam Cassell was an NBA point [...]
Celtics GM Review: Danny Ainge
There was a lot of speculation as to whether Danny Ainge would have his job much longer as the general manager of the Celtics after the terrible results of the 06-07 season. Nothing had seemed to be going right at all in Ainge’s career as GM. None of the draft picks or players acquired in [...]
Sam Cassell to Return to Celtics?
According to Sam Cassell, he’s rejoining the Celtics for the 2008-09 season as a backup point guard, and it will be his last season as a player in the NBA. He apparently will then become an assistant coach to Doc Rivers the following season.
Cassell told the Baltimore Sun on Wednesday that he plans to officially [...]
Doc Gets Ring, Then Gets Paid
Yahoo! Sports is reporting that the Celtics and head coach Doc Rivers have agreed on an extension that will keep the coach with the team through the 2010-2011 season.

Celtics Player Review: Kevin Garnett
Kevin Garnett is the most intense player I have seen on the Celtics in my lifetime.
KG (or the “The Big Ticket”) was one of the major pieces to this Championship winning team. Garnett was a powerhouse the whole season. From the moment the Celtics finalized the deal to bring him to Boston to the last [...]
Welcome to the NBA: The Thunder?

Giddens, Miles Officially Sign with Champs

Celtics Player Review: Paul Pierce
The Captain. The Man. The Truth.
Paul Pierce has embodied everything Celtics since his arrival as the No. 10 pick back in 1998. First, he paired with Antoine Walker to form the Dynamic Duo that actually made some noise in the playoffs. Then, he led a Celtics team as it’s only star and only capable scoring [...]
